Hi guys! I ordered the book Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming, recommended by people here at DV, and I got it about 2 days ago. I've read about 28 pages and I love it.
I usually read it right before I go to bed, usually 10 minutes prior, for about 20 minutes or until I finish a chapter; so it is fresh in my mind before sleeping. So, I'm not in the whole gist of doing WBTB's yet. I used to do them all the time, but I keep telling myself before I go to bed, "Should I set my alarm for ______ time for WBTB?" Then I think to myself, "Nah, I'll probably be too tired to even try to stay awake for a few minutes, then I'll forget what I'm supposed to do." So I give up on the idea and set my alarm for my regular time of getting up.
ANYWAYS, I'm still reading in the introduction/history/science of lucid dreaming in the book right now. Once I get to the techniques to induce lucid dreams, do I need to try each and every one of them to see what they are like for me, and record my results? If so, how many times do I need to do these techniques each to figure it out?
And I would go back to my results and look over and see which technique is best for me.
This is kind of about opinions with me.. but, I'm a very inpatient person, so I don't much like MILD. I would rather do WILD, and it sounds very fun and exciting. But I've searched and searched and searched new ways to WILD, but I was getting no where. I have given up on WILDing for a bit; seeing as I feel like I am too lazy and that I think to myself that, "I would probably be too tired during the day from WILDing."
I think MILDing and VILDing take too long, WILDing is hard for me, and the other techniques I have not really tried yet. The only one that really works for me is DILDing of course. I've had about 17 DILDs or so. Started lucid dreaming in June of 2010. I guess it's kind of some progress for me.
So here's the questions:
Once I get to the techniques to induce lucid dreams, do I need to try each and every one of them to see what they are like for me, and record my results? If so, how many times do I need to do these techniques each to figure it out?
I'm sorry but I hope you read that whole wall of text to make sure you understand what I'm trying to put through. ^_^
Thanks in advance!
